i personally think that it is sad. but i dont think that its real. i understand that it happens,(people being homeless) but how did they get there? did they make a bad decision that led to 20 more bad decisions? or did they lose everything in a fire or tornado, a flood? there is a difference in those ppl. i DONT have respect for ppl who fuck their lives up and expect ppl to bale them out. just like the ppl who take advantage of the system.
but behind every pic, there IS a story so we shouldnt judge ppl by the pic.

the dude has vans and a hair cut. most likely one of those trash diggin vegan hippies. the dog looks healthy. i hate people hang out in front of stores with their kids and dogs and beg for money. if you cant provide for yourself, dont bring in another mouth to feed. id donate a bag of dog food if i saw that.

would you still be sad if the guy begging for $ or anything was talking on a cell phone leaving his spot? hey i dont mind helping ppl out, but if they can afford a cell phone then they dont need to be free loafing off of us ppl. i love this. i can give an opinon.

although there was one time a couple years ago i was fishing in my boat and getting a smoke... no freaking lighter. saw a dude under the hwy 6 bridge and asked him if he had a lighter and he asked me what color? he was cool. nice guy i threw him $5.
